Chef Russ and his fabulous helper did a cooking class for us in our home through a Living Social deal. We had the option of either rolling up our sleeves and getting our hands dirty along side him, or sitting back and relaxing with a bottle of wine while being schooled. It had been a long week for us so we chose to relax and watch Chef in action. We learned some great tricks to make SERIOUSLY the BEST roasted potatoes you'll ever have, and an amazingly simple lava cake. He also...

I was the president of Folsom BNI, a weekly networking chapter. We hired Chef Russ to provide lunch for our 30+ members and visitors each week and everyone LOVED his meals! We looked forward to a great variety of hot lunches and continue to refer clients to him and hire him back for special events. We had a strict budget and time frame and he handled everything beyond our expectations.

Chef Russ is AWESOME!
Our company had a mini retreat in Tahoe not too long ago and wanted a fun in home meal prepared for our group It was our way to team build and be pampered a bit while on a weekend away. It was a last minute kind of an idea that we didn't think about until we were already at the cabin, but we thought we would see what was possible... I believe I called Chef Russ at 8pm on a Saturday night and at the end of our call, I had menu selections emailed to...

I was recently in a wedding on Lake Tahoe. Chef Russ and his team did a fantastic job. They served a cheese and meat appetizer plate, rosemary chicken, roasted vegetables, a gorgonzola salad and the most AMAZING smashed russet and garlic yam potatoes. They were so delicious!! The whole team was fantastic and very nice. They even made the bride and us bridesmaids a little appetizer plate while we were waiting to go down the aisle. They cleaned up and even left us with all the left overs. YUM!...

Chef Russ and staff did an amazing job for our wedding! He made everything so personal and so delicious. He knows what tastes good together - food and drink. Our wedding was for about 80 people held at a private home. He came in took over the kitchen, cooked on the BBQ and it was all seamless and did i mention delicious!
I would highly recommend Chef for your next small dinner party or larger gathering!

We had Chef Russ come to our house for my 6-year old's birthday party. It was fantastic and Chef was great with the kids. My little guy has asked for him to come back and cook again many times. Definitely recommend him! :)

Chef Russ and The Hidden Table Gourmet company that he operates is fantastic.
I have experienced his services as both a personal chef, and as a caterer for large events. In each category, he has received excellent reviews. His desire to please his clients is second to none. I truly believe that he will continue to polish his operation and organization as the opportunity to cater large events arises, while maintaining his "personal" touches and attention to his...

Myself and friends had the pleasure of meeting Chef Russ a few months ago on a Living Social deal. He was great fun, cooked with us an amazing dinner and his side kick was a doll. We now have developed a great friendship with him and cooked some recipes he has given us for dinner. I would fully recommend his service if you want to join in cooking with him, or just sit back and have a great bottle of wine and watch him do his magic. He is a great guy.

Chef russ is simply the man. Decided to try him due to all the perfect yelp reviews - glad we did!! He is truly a 5 star guy - I could go on about how we loved all his dishes (wow the chicken!!!!) / what a great guy he is but I will leave it short and sweet and say - contact him and book him ASAP - you won't regret it!!!!!!!! Cheers!!!!!!!!
